OUTDOOR EDIBLE CLASSROOM The Edible Classroom at the Robert A Lee Community Recreation Center is open to visitors during facility hours. Come see local food growing in the gardens, play in the fairy garden and watch the butterflies fly around. In partnership with Backyard Abundance, the Edible Classroom was awarded an Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship Grant and now serves as a garden classroom.

LINE DANCING Learn the most popular line dances in the area so you can join in the fun at your favorite country spot. Three dances are taught per session. Music will be played during breaks so that you can practice dances you have learned. Line dancing is a fun way to exercise and make friends!
